One of my favorite things to do at Beautiful Books is the monthly book giveaway contests. While all the Facebook changes meant that I decided to delay starting the contest by a few days, that doesn't mean we aren't all going to have fun!March is "Music in Our Schools Month," and March 26 is "Make Up Your Own Holiday" day. It also happens to be my parents wedding anniversary, so extra meaningful for me, and my mother is a musician! Love it when everything comes together. :-)The first book is one of my all time favorite on the site - "My Family Plays Music" by Judy Cox. A rich story that introduces lots of different types of music while interweaving a story of family togetherness and love. And what would Music month be without music? So the second book is "Meet the Feeling Friends" by Karen Cuthrell and includes a music CD of lots of fun songs you can enjoy with your little ones. We were dancing around the house for hours with this one! One winner takes all, so don't wait to get registered!March is going to be a special month for a couple other reasons too as we are having some fun special events (some online and some offline) that you won't want to miss! Check out our Facebook page to get all the details.So that is the contest for this month. As always, you get points when you pass it on to all your friends, and they get to share on the fun too.Have a wonderful March!

It is February, and for many that means love is in the air. One book my youngest regularly brings to me to read is "I Love You More Than Rainbows" by Susan Crites. Since it is one of our favorites, we were so excited when Susan offered to give us three copies to give as Valentine's Day gifts to our readers!Trust me, you will love this book too. So if you would like a chance to win, visit our contest page and enter right away! You have until February 13, 2012 to collect points by entering the contest, sharing the contest on your Facebook wall, and getting your friends to sign up too.Since we have three books to give away, the top two with the most points will each get a copy, and then we will do one random giveaway of all the people who have entered. Some people love playing these games and sharing with friends, but some just don't have time, and we want you to have a chance to win too!Two of the copies are the beautiful hard cover edition. There are actually not many of these in print right now, so this is a really unique item that you can't just go out and buy! We are also giving away one board book copy if your child is still in that ripping stage. The top winner will be able to pick which one they want first.So go enter! And stay tuned, because we are giving away a new book each month! Have fun!

One of the things we love to do at Beautiful Books for Children is give away free books. With a limited number of books and so many families who would love to have them, how do you decide? Well, usually we just do a random drawing from our Facebook page, but this time we decided to let you decide? How? By participating in a contest to earn points. The person with the most points wins!And the prize? The board book copy of "Cows Can't Jump" by Dave Reisman. This is a fun story that will have you and your kids jumping around, learning new words, and just generally having fun. And since it is a board book you don't have to worry about the pages not holding up to all the action.So how does it work? Head on over to the contest page to get started. You get points for all kinds of things from entering the contest, to sharing on your Facebook page. Every day you can share it again, get more friends excited about the contest too, and earn even more points. At the end of the month, we will see who has the most points and declare a winner! If there is a two-way tie, we will give-away two books. If there are more than two people with the same number of points at the end of the contest, then we wil randomly select two of the top point earners.
